More quotes by H. L. Mencken
It is the dull man who is always sure, and the sure man who is always dull.
Faith may be defined briefly as an illogical belief in the occurrence of the improbable.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
